My tangs are HUGE fans of seaweed. They need both algae as well as other foods to be healthy and happy. I feed on average, daily, about 12 2 inch pieces. Yes, 12. I have 4 tangs and they rip that seaweed apart like they have never eaten before. lol
I feed a sheet 10x10" daily for 6 full grown tangs. They need that bulk as there isn't that much nutrition in seaweed. They also accept meaty foods which they also get once a day. No flakes.
It has been mentioned that I have the fattest tangs anyone has ever seen. It has been intentional as I believe it is a part of the key to keeping them healthy and calm.
A lot of times in LFS I see what appears to be lettuce in the tanks? Is that simply romaine lettuce on a clip? Does leaving nori and this "lettuce" in the tank affect nitrates and throw off any other levels?
